I'm a bit unsure about how to use these ear drops for wax that I got from the chemist. Theyre called Drep Wax drops, but there's no information on the bottle about how many drops I should be using. Could you let me know how to go about using them?

I'm a bit worried because I've had a dry cough for about a week, and now the right side of my back is swollen. I went to the doctor, and she said the swelling is from the cough and it's nothing serious. The swelling has gone down, but I'm still feeling a little pain around my right rib area. Should I be concerned about this lingering pain? Could it be something more than just from the cough?

Patient is advised tab augmentin 625mg orally,thrice daily for 5 days,tab levocetrizine 10 mg bedtime ,orally for 5 days and syrup salbutamol 10ml thrice dailly for 5 days is advised to the patient.

Hey, I recently recovered from dengue and it's been about two weeks since I was discharged from the hospital. I'm feeling healthy now, but I'm wondering if it's okay for me to start drinking alcohol or if I should wait a bit longer. Also, is it alright to smoke again, or could that cause any problems?

Yes you can consume Alcohol nut in limited quantity.
